Following my Windows Server 2016 Nano Server blog series I wroth another post about how to add a package to existing Nano Server Virtual machine.Update: If you are running TP5 you can use the online option using the Package Management With Windows Nano Server 2016 article.

Add Packages using the cmdlet below:

Note: You will need to use the Base packages folder that was created during the Nano Server setup, If you can’t find you will need to create a new Base Image folder.
